areaseven Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 If you thought this trailer gave away too much, just wait for the Japanese trailer. The Japanese are notorious for giving away endings on their trailers. Quote
Mommar Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 If you thought this trailer gave away too much, just wait for the Japanese trailer. The Japanese are notorious for giving away endings on their trailers. Oh really? I wonder why. Quote
areaseven Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Oh really? I wonder why. I've read somewhere that it's a cultural thing. While western audiences watch a trailer and go see the movie to know how it ends, the Japanese audience watch a trailer with the ending and go see the movie to know the whole story. Case in point: the Seven Samurai trailer immediately gave away the fact that four of the seven Samurai died in battle, leaving viewers wondering who they were and what they were fighting for. Quote

It's not a bad way to do trailers, I mean the story should be more important than the ending. Think about Pre-quels, we know how it ends, but we want to know how it started. Quote
myk Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Then, I agree with the Japanese on that note. I've never understood why people are so passionately against the idea of a story being revealed until it's deemed appropriate. Spoilers? Go for it, in my opinion. Tell me exactly what's supposed to happen, and don't leave out any details. I mean, you still have to watch and experience the story play itself out, anyway... Quote

In this trailers case I don't see what the big deal is....but for a movie like the Sixth Sense, I definately wouldn't want to be spoiled. Some twists are important to not be spoiled. BvS, IMO, is not one f them. Chris Edited December 6, 2015 by Dobber Quote
EXO Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 The only thing it really spoils is how bad it's gonna be... Quote
Einherjar Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 We're aware of who Bizzaro is and how he was made. But in this instance they've come out and clearly said this is Doomsday. What a puny god-killer, taken out like a chump in less than two hours because he is part of Lex Luthor's anti-Superman scheme number 001. That's not a spoiler either at this point. Quote

TangledThorns Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Heh, just realized that I don't have any complaints in regards to Affleck's Batman in the trailer which is probably the tallest hurdle this film faces IMHO. Edited December 7, 2015 by TangledThorns Quote
Duke Togo Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Heh, just realized that I don't have any complaints in regards to Affleck's Batman in the trailer which is probably the tallest hurdle this film faces IMHO. Snyder is the tallest hurdle the movie faces. Quote
TangledThorns Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Snyder is the tallest hurdle the movie faces. I think he is a good director and just needs the right material to direct that will match his style. 300 and Man of Steel are favorites of mine. Quote
no3Ljm Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 I think Snyder is great on executing stories that has an 'image' reference to it than one without. E.g. Watchmen and 300. Those were great. Sucker Punch and Man of Steel, I like it, but not that much. Quote

Those were great. Sucker Punch and Man of Steel, I like it, but not that much. I thought Watchmen was a well made movie but Snyder was the wrong choice as director however the style he used in Man of Steel would of worked for Watchmen. Its like he is a constantly evolving director and/or some Hollywood execs are making these bad decisions. From what I read about this film it appears to be the latter.

Duke Togo Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 That Snyder is allowed to direct anything bigger than tv commercials and music videos still baffles me. Quote

anime52k8 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I don't understand the gun turret on the front. honestly this whole thing still looks like a big mess and I'm not sold on batfleck at all. (why is he doing the stupid low gravel voice? it was crap when christian bale did it and it's even more crap now). Quote

anime52k8 Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 He's not, it's a voicebox. either way, it still sounds stupid listening to him talk. one thing I am coming around to is the idea of Lex Luther as a more evil Mark Zuckerberg. Quote
Hikuro Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Talk about ripping off Arrow there with the voice box and it's HORRIBLE. it's also damn lazy. Quote

Re: Lex and evil Mark Zuckerberg - this is what I was hoping for. BUT The previews don't give that vibe at all, Lex comes off as clownish, which is just more to add to the pre-disappointment. -b.

derex3592 Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I'm actually not hating the Lex yet, the voicebox thing, yes. Stupid, the Batmobile ...meh. Quote
Mommar Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Using the voicebox outside of the armored suit makes no sense but I guess it's better than the Bale-growl. Quote

Oh... and Affleck? I love that dude since Mallrats. Quote
wwwmwww Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Looks like Bruce Wayne goes to Mifune Moters to get the new Batmobile. I wonder if the gun turret on the front is an upgrade from the saw blades that come standard. Carl Quote
